Exporting PATH_SEPARATOR in MSYS also breaks the configury. That's why I run 'configure' first (without specifying PATH_SEPARATOR), then modify the config.h generated by configure. It's not an elegant solution, I fully admit.

What about something like: $ diff -u make.h.orig make.h --- make.h.orig 2010-07-20 09:12:06 -0400 +++ make.h 2010-08-26 11:00:05 -0400 @@ -306,13 +306,15 @@ #define S_(msg1,msg2,num) ngettext (msg1,msg2,num) /* Handle other OSs. */ -#ifndef PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR -# if defined(HAVE_DOS_PATHS) -# define PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR ';' -# elif defined(VMS) -# define PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR ',' -# else -# define PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR ':' +#if defined(HAVE_DOS_PATHS) +# undef PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR +# define PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR ';' +#elif defined(VMS) +# undef PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR +# define PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR ',' +#else +# ifndef PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR +# define PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR ':' # endif #endif Given the assumption that PATH_SEPARATOR_CHAR *is* redundant for VMS and HAVE_DOS_PATHS. Once we have something that we both think would work, I'll bring this up on the make-w32 mailing list and see if we can get it in the upstream sources. Cheers!
